Recovery Auditor Report, October 1, 2009
The Revenue Cycle Institute has released a new White Paper, “Sepsis and Septicemia: Clear Up Coding and Documentation Confusion,” by Jennifer Avery, CCS, CPC, CPC-H CPC-I, regulatory specialist for HCPro, Inc.
In addition, each month the Revenue Cycle Institute publishes a free sample tool or form for readers.
